Hi to all! I'm new in this forum.
My name is Alessandro and I'm a Chemist. I would like to interface Arduino UNO with some old MKS Mass Flow Controllers. They have a serial port with 15 pin and I konw the meaning of each one (in the follow):
1# MKS Test Point
2# Flow Signal Output
3# Valve Close
4# Valve Open
5# Power common
6# -15 VDC
7# +15 VDC
8# Set Point Input
9# No Connection
10# Optional Connection
11# Signal Common
12# Signal Common
13# No Connection
14# No Connection
15# Chassis Ground
I would like to use it like flow reader and/or like flow regulator.
Would it be possible? If yes, how must I proceed with the connection and with the sketch?
Thanks to everyone who can help me!
Best regard,
Alessandro
